Flushing, Queens-based Atria Builders filed plans yesterday to build a 29-story Courtyard by Marriott near the Javits Convention Center.
The now-vacant site at 461 West 34th Street, also known as 428 10th Avenue, will balloon into a 197,253-square-foot project with 399 hotel rooms. DSM Design Group is serving as architect.
Manhattan Regional Center is partnering with Atria on the project, BuzzBuzzHome reported. It will receive funding from the federal EB-5 program, through which foreigners who invest at least $500,000 in American businesses can be granted a visa.
